There's only one problem....America's 1st' 2nd' 4th' and 10th Amendments (at a bare minimum) have been so thouroughly EVISCERATED since 911 that I can no longer sit idly by while such a great nation is DEBAUCHED by the elite from within.

Anti-American? No Sir.... Perhaps H.L Menken (famous American political pundit/journalist from early last century) put it best when he said:

""The notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naive and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who likes his country more than the rest of us and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair."

[quote="Jedi Marksman":600fc][quote="GreenEggs&Pot":600fc]Yah, I've watched it on Lanuch a few times, it hard to figure out who's acting gayer, Eminem or the US goverment.[/quote:600fc]

I'm going to be presumptuous and say it was Eminem.[/quote:600fc]

the government hasn't done anything that can be considered gay yet.

they've done things that qualify as stupid on several occasions...OK, OK, so various levels of our government do something dumb about every day but nothing that can be considered gay.

It's from the White America music video by Eminem.

PS, that video was shown on MTV just the other day. I dunno what you mean that it was banned. The only video that was banned from MTV so far to date was Smack My Bitch Up by Prodigy.

That was according to the guys who made the video...

excerpt from http://www.gnn.tv/white_america/

"But no level of corporate safeguarding could prepare us for the reception that CNN gave the video just days after its launch on Rolling Stone.com, when a parent of one of the Columbine shooting victims was brought on to critique the work. This coverage, combined with the perception of the video as "anti-patriotic" was enough to delay the video's television debut indefinitely."


Seems I'm always the last to know. ;-)
